Repair or scrap / break

No one got any suggestions?

I’m concerned with search engines as for instance if I use eBay and put in the car details it comes up with this Link  for the lambda sensor but I’m not sure from the advert itself if it’s correct for the earlier engine

Anti roll bar drop links seem to go from £12 on eBay  to £46 Here  for one, though I’d replace both to be safe.   One is £26 on the  BigJimny shop

I’m told by the supplier that this lambda sensor simssuzukiparts.co.uk/products/new-bosch...8986507-suzuki-jimny will fit though will need the electrical connector changing. It’s not actually listed for my early model.

I’ve just found this YouTube video of someone changing a connector on a sensor.

I noted in the video that he uses a special socket to remove and refit the sensor. Something else I’d not figured on but I see them sold on eBay.

As above, advice is welcome

On my 54 plate Jimny I had to replace the downstream sensor and found the expensive way that none genuine is a lottery. It was the start of only fitting genuine or Gucci standard parts for me. It's worth mentioning this was best part of 15 years ago so things may have improved but I doubt it.

Thanks for the reply Lambert.
I contacted my local Suzuki dealer who said that a genuine lambda sensor is £279 +VAT and is non returnable ( from Germany) so would need money up front. It’s also at least 10 days delivery. That’s ridiculous.

I did get the lambda sensor part number however, as 18213-50G01.  EBay finds some around the £100 mark, or slightly less if buying from abroad.

or were you talking about the drop link?  My Suzuki dealer sells them, part number 42081A10 for £52 each.

The lambda sensor. Like I said it was a while ago and pricing wasn't that awful.

Merry Christmas all.   Just thought I’d advise that the Jimny lives again.   All the repairs have been carried out, plus some extra welding found when taken to a different MoT garage and it’s back on the road again.   Some of the welding was to improve that done poorly in the past but what’s done is done.   Got it back earlier this week and it’s nice to be back driving it again.
